You don't have winter down there. I laugh at Texans reaction to their 'winter'. I lived down there (north DFW area) for 2 1/2 years, every time it got down below 50 the winter jackets came out, at 20 the parkas did . That's +20 F. Y'all freak out when it snows, and shut everything down. Right after I moved down there, in Nov. 1993, there was a bit of snow on Thanksgiving, and I was flying past all the native Texans going 10 MPH with white knuckles on the wheel. It still took me 2 hrs to go from McKinney to Arlington.
There are two seasons in Texas; Green and Brown.
Actually, that wasn't even snow, it was sleet. lol I worked that night and probably handled a dozen wrecks. I work in McKinney but live about twenty miles north. People in this part of Texas definitely freak out whenever there is any amount of frozen precip on the roadways. However, you people can keep all of that cold weather up north. I don't see how y'all handle it. I'm 55 and have yet to shovel one ounce of snow.
